There is no need for a preview of this one. We saw it 19 times over the last six months so I'll make it short. The Sox won nine out of the 19, but out scored their rival by 15 runs. The Sox offense and glove work is a notch above their opponents. The other team's starting pitching is slightly better and certainly deeper, rested and lined up. Both team's middle relief is iffy, but one has an top notch ace coming out of the pen. The Sox pen has more potential with Williamson, Embree and Timlin. The benches are equal. The other club's management gets the nod. Intangibles go to the Sox with the smiles, the hugs, the shaved heads, the Rally Karaoke Guy, Cowboy Up and we, RSN, BELIEVE!
